Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that the New Orleans Saints have agreed to a one-year deal with DT Aubrayo Franklin.
Franklin was expected to re-sign with the 49ers but the Saints offer an opportunity to win now. Franklin has played for Baltimore and San Francisco and was expected to be targeted by 3-4 teams. In New Orleans he will play in the 4-3 and battle with Sedrick Ellis and Shaun Rogers for a starting spot.
